WWe wrestling?

My dh thinks it's ok and I'm being stupid, but I think it's violent and aggressive, and even though it's all fake, she doesn't know that. All dd sees is men beating each other up and I'm concerned she may try to copy it with her friends.

So AIBU or do I need to get a grip?

But what's wrong with Star Wars for a 5 year old? I assume you're talking about the proper ones, not the jumped up excuse for a toy advert they released later?

But all my kids have seen the original Star Wars, and for one of them, it was before she was 5. Its fine!

Me and Dp like WWE but only watch it on Sunday lunch time. Ds 2.11 and dd 5.10 just say it's boring and go and play in the bedroom.

We have some relatives visiting at the moment who wanted to watch it. Thankfully, dh isn't really that interested in it, but when I heard what was on, I went in and said I didn't think it was suitable for our dd, he spluttered and laughed and told me I was being ridiculous.

He did turn it off though.

Glad none of you think i'm being a bit pfb with it.

YANBU at all. My DH's younger brother went through a phase of watching WWW and he kept wanting to try all the moves out! Made him quite violent for a while as he thought it was okay to do that to people

YANBU, WWW is vile. At least Star Wars has a story to it, and the violence is totally different.
